This position offers complete scheduling flexibility. You decide when you want to work. We provide a steady flow of clients throughout Orange County, including Irvine, Costa Mesa, Newport Beach, Huntington Beach, Laguna Beach, Laguna Niguel, Lake Forest, Mission Viejo, Tustin, Anaheim Hills, Yorba Linda, and surrounding communities.
You do not need to be a certified trainer. What matters most is your temperament, your communication skills, and your willingness to learn our proven approach.
The work is meaningful, heart-centered, and deeply rewarding. You will help families with early puppy development, basic obedience, leash manners, polite greetings, recall training, confidence-building, and creating calmer, more balanced behavior in real-world situations. Families in Orange County especially appreciate a calm, warm teaching style paired with practical guidance they can use right away.
Applicants with any dog-related experience are encouraged to apply, including daycare, rescue, fostering, boarding, walking, grooming, vet clinics, or previous training experience. You should be dependable, comfortable working independently, and able to communicate clearly and kindly with clients. A positive-reinforcement mindset and reliable transportation are essential.
Pay typically ranges from $35 to $75 per hour, depending on experience, skill level, and the types of programs you take on. Your income will vary based on how many clients you choose to work with and the hours you want to dedicate.
Karma Dog Training is a well-established national company with a strong and growing presence in Orange County. We provide support, guidance, and consistent client referrals. Many of our trainers stay with us long term because the work is meaningful, the culture is supportive, and the impact they make is enormous.
If you’re interested, please reply with your name, the city or neighborhood you live in, a brief description of your dog-related experience, your availability, and your phone number. We look forward to connecting with you and possibly welcoming you into the Karma Dog family.
